Grape juice at home. How to make freshly squeezed grape juice - recipe and preparation.

It is no coincidence that natural grape juice is included in many delicious and healthy cocktails. We can talk about the benefits and harms of grape juice for a very long time, but everyone will definitely agree with the opinion that the benefits are much greater.

How to make grape juice at home? How to preserve freshly squeezed grape juice and store it for the winter? It turns out it’s not at all difficult to prepare. After all, preparing (or making) grape juice is a fairly simple procedure. The main thing is to stock up on time and patience.

Let's start making juice by buying or picking grapes. If the grapes were not treated with chemicals and grew in an ecologically clean area, then they do not even need to be washed.

Further, juice preparation can be of two types. The first is if you use a juicer. For example, this one.

In this case, we separate healthy grapes from the stems and load them into the juicer. Next, look at the instructions for the juicer you are using.

But my family doesn't like the juice from the juicer. Therefore, let's move on to the second method.

The juice prepared this way is very natural, quite concentrated and very sweet. We never add sugar to juice, but the juice turns out so sweet and concentrated that when opening the jar in winter, it has to be diluted with water.

All you need to do is grind the grapes in any way you like. You can get juice by running grapes through a juicer,

crushing grapes simply with your hands or feet - like Celentano,

in a special thresher, in which grapes are ground when making wine, or in a meat grinder,

or so,

Or you can do it this way, as the author of this video came up with:

When the grapes have already been crushed and juice has come out of them, we collect the squeezed juice and pour it into a pan and strain it through a fairly large sieve. This is the first filter. This is how we clean the juice from skins and other large components.

The next step is to place the pan with freshly squeezed grape juice on the fire and bring to a boil. Let it simmer for 3-5 minutes after boiling and pour the boiled grape juice into clean, pre-prepared jars or bottles. Now we pour the juice through a finer sieve - this is the second filter. Filled jars (bottles) to the top - screw the lids on. The juice is ready!

Try for yourself how easy it is to prepare grape juice for the winter in this way. Preserving grape juice this way is a pleasure. And most importantly, the juice will be truly natural. Even without a gram of sugar.

You can even give this grape juice to children or make a cocktail for yourself.
